## About the role

The people we hire over the next year will define Terac. Today, the founders run recruiting themselves across engineering, GTM, operations, and strategic projects roles. You will be our first recruiter and own internal hiring end to end, partnering directly with the CEO and CTO to build a world-class, in-person team in San Francisco. You'll recruit the people who solve the problems above, and those problems are a big part of how you'll sell candidates on Terac. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.
